Edgar Mueller

Edgar Müller/Mueller was born in Mülheim/Ruhr, Germany on 10 July 1968. His fascination with painting began in his childhood, with paintings of rural scenes of Straelen. He went to the high school in the neighboring town of Geldern, where an international competition of street painters took place. Since 1998 Edgar Müller has held the title of 'maestro madonnari' (master street painter). The title is awarded at the world’s largest street painting festival, called The Grazie Festival, which is held in the small pilgrim town of Grazie in Italy. Around the age of 25, Müller decided to devote himself completely to street painting.
